• 1/ Idiomas Catolica: I always speak best about what I know firsthand, so I recommend this school, where I spent 4 months. It's affiliated with the prestigious Universidad Católica and offers Spanish courses, among others. Expect to pay around 360 soles per month, with a program of 2 hours of classes daily, 5 days a week. Classes are kept to fewer than 15 students, and the teachers are genuinely wonderful!
